Times archive goes online

The Times has launched its entire archive, dating back 200 years, in a new section of the site. There are 20m articles, ads and photographs in the archive. I particularly like the interactive timeline and the way the PDF pages are embedded into the site, and surrounded by integrated content about the major events covered. There are 150 topic pages which feature subjected like Winston Churchill, the Crimean War and Scott of the Antarctic. Great stuff.
